A game of survival becomes a war for truth in the jungle that never forgives.
Sanhok (2025) is a nerve-shredding action-survival thriller inspired by the brutal mechanics of battle royale warfare. Set on a remote Southeast Asian island riddled with secrets, ancient ruins, and militarized zones, the film throws viewers into a deadly game where survival isn’t a goal — it’s a demand. Blending intense gunfights, suspenseful stalking, and psychological warfare, Sanhok captures the chaos of war with relentless energy.
The story follows Corporal Dax Renner, a dishonorably discharged soldier recruited into a covert program known only as Project Sanhok. Promised a clean record and a payout if he survives, Renner is air-dropped onto the island with 99 other operatives — mercenaries, prisoners, and deserters — each armed, tracked, and ordered to eliminate the competition. But as the bodies drop and alliances fracture, Renner discovers there’s something else on the island: a secret research facility beneath the jungle, and an experiment that may be influencing their minds.
With no communication to the outside world and the zone shrinking with every hour, Renner teams up with Zara Nguyen, a former intelligence officer with a personal vendetta, to expose the truth behind Project Sanhok. Together, they must navigate enemy squads, hidden booby traps, and their own crumbling morality as the island demands one thing: Only one may leave.
Directed with heart-pounding pacing and immersive choreography, Sanhok is more than just survival — it’s a look into the weaponization of desperation, the collapse of humanity under pressure, and the high-tech future of warfare.
